Max and his team provided very detailed instructions on how to get to his apartment from the airport, and what to do to get access into it - so that's been super helpful. Plus the response to get something set right was also very quick so full marks there.
The biggest plus point is that the apartment is right next to a 24-hour 7-Eleven so access to food, drinks, and daily necessities was really no problem at all. And it is just about a 5-minute walk from the Queen Sirikit Convention Centre MRT station makes getting around Bangkok by both MRT and BTS extremely convenient.
All in all, a great host, a really nice and cosy apartment, and a team that's super responsive. I'll be back!
